Finally, the day arrived for the sponsored recipients of Dough 4 Joe 2014 Fun Run to reap some rewards. On August 30 & 31, the Dough 4 Joe family gathered together to deliver checks to the families sponsored this year. It was a wonderful weekend for a ride, and an overwhelming number of Dough 4 Joe family members gathered for the biggest heartfelt ride of the year. With the sun at our backs and the wind in our faces, we rode to the first of our 8 recipients. The rumble of bikes echoed through the town, and out on the lawn there arose such a clatter, the families came out to see what was the matter. Ok, sorry, but I just couldn’t resist a little “Night Before Christmas” reference there; after all, we were Dough 4 Joe Santa’s that day! It took us two days to ride to all of the recipients homes, but it was so heartwarming to hear from the families how blessed they feel to have a group of strangers become family! The two days were amazing and thanks to all the committee members, sponsors, vendors, donors, attendees, and local community members we were able to make a different in the lives of these 8 families! Thank you for all your support! Let’s work towards making our 10th annual run in 2015 the biggest and best it has ever been! If you are interested in becoming more involved with Dough 4 Joe, please check out our website and contact a board member, the satisfaction and heartfelt feelings you get from helping others just can’t be topped! As always keep the Dough 4 Joe family in your thoughts and prayers as they continue to work towards the greater good of others.
